In the novel Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card, Ender Wiggin is the young boy chosen to go to Battle School to find out if he can be the commander of the army to defeat the Buggers.

The central theme, of how to combat enemies and rivals, is underlined by the peaceful resolution; but the other important theme, that of kinship and family, is reconciled by the relationship between Ender and his sister, bot at the beginning of the novel, when they team up to combat their big brother's cruelty, and by their swimming scene when Ender is on leave.http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-would-principal-theme-short-story-enders-game-471734Thu, 16 Oct 2014 15:17:34 PSTThe Enders Game is a short story written by Orson Scott Card that was...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-would-principal-theme-short-story-enders-game-471734
The Enders Game is a short story written by Orson Scott Card that was later expanded into a novel and turned into a cinematic movie. Within the short story the focus is on the main character, Ender, who leads an army fighting a unidentified enemy. Within this story the soldiers who are fighting are children who have been trained and are overseen by adults. During the course of the story the children believe that they are playing a simulation,...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-would-principal-theme-short-story-enders-game-471734#2Thu, 16 Oct 2014 14:13:21 PSTWhat would be the principal theme in the short story "Ender's Game" and...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-would-principal-theme-short-story-enders-game-471734

A figure of speech, oxymoron fuses two contradictory or opposing ideas. Everyone has heard oxymoron's in his/her life, and while they apparently contradict themselves, there is a certain logic to them. For instance, the phrase "Alone together" seems contradictory, yet there are married couples that are often seen together at restaurants and such where there is no communication between them; they each stare off somewhere with private thoughts...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-an-example-an-oxymoron-enders-game-470114Thu, 24 Jul 2014 17:19:10 PSTWhat is an example of an oxymoron in Ender's Game?http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-an-example-an-oxymoron-enders-game-470114

My school had the whole collection of Ender's Game books so no, I don't think its inappropriate in language for middle school kids, let alone high school students. The writing is actually rather simplistic. But its one of those books whose meaning you only begin to understand as you get older.http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/keeping-books-off-media-centers-shelves-393661Wed, 4 Jun 2014 14:01:46 PSTOne distinct comparison between both works is the presence of a social...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-comparisons-can-drawn-between-enders-game-469308
One distinct comparison between both works is the presence of a social order predicated upon division. In Ender's world, conflict against the Buggers defines all aspects of being in the world. War and conflict represent the means of social configuration. Stratification is evident based on one's prowess in warfare and the more one embraces the war mentality, the greater the chance for social advancement. Speaking out against the war is...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-comparisons-can-drawn-between-enders-game-469308Mon, 26 May 2014 14:07:24 PSTWhat comparisons can be drawn between Ender's Game and Gattaca?

The adults are the enemies because they are the ones manipulating the children through the use of these 'battle games', causing the children to fight and battle amongst themselves when the adults were the real ones controlling these games. Through this manipulation, we can see what Orson Scott Card illustrated with his adult versus child relationship.http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/enders-game-chapter-7-why-adults-real-enemies-183205Wed, 21 May 2014 21:31:00 PSTI've linked to the themes page so you can get more ideas.

I've linked to the themes page so you can get more ideas. One of the themes is ambition and power. Peter manipulates the masses to influence them and bring about the situations he desires. Graff, with his power, manipulates Ender into becoming the perfect commander capable of making smart but ruthless decisions to defeat the buggers. Peter manipulates to gain power and Graff manipulates because he has power.http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/what-theme-enders-game-351224Sun, 18 May 2014 00:16:04 PSTEnder is being carefully manipulated to become the perfect commander who...http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/wahts-meaning-quote-isolate-him-enough-that-he-289659
Ender is being carefully manipulated to become the perfect commander who will save the human race. For this to happen, Ender needs to outsmart and out think the buggers. Ender's advantage is his creative thinking. The mysterious voices in the beginning of the chapters have decided that isolating Ender from the rest will ensure that he doesn't adopt their way of thinking. But they have to be careful of his isolation to not drive him insane.http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/wahts-meaning-quote-isolate-him-enough-that-he-289659Sun, 18 May 2014 00:10:47 PSTA "third" is in general considered a bad thing.

A "third" is in general considered a bad thing. In this future society, people only have two children. But Ender is a special case. His parents are so intelligent and their children are so intelligent that the government sanctioned them to have a third child--one they can hope to train to be a commander that will save the Earth.http://www.enotes.com/homework-help/ender-third-based-chapters-1-3-positive-negative-290178Sun, 18 May 2014 00:06:56 PST
